Houston Astros
Josh Hader has thrown 8,569 pitches that have been tracked by the PITCHf/x system between 2015 and 2025, including pitches thrown in the MLB Regular Season and Spring Training. In 2025, they have relied primarily on their Sinker (95mph) and Slider (82mph), also mixing in a Change (87mph).
In 2025, compared to other LHP:
Their sinker generates an extremely high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' sinkers, is blazing fast, has surprisingly little armside run and has little sinking action compared to a true sinker. Their slider generates more whiffs/swing compared to other pitchers' sliders, results in somewhat more flyballs compared to other pitchers' sliders and has some two-plane movement. Their change (take this with a grain of salt because they've only thrown 18 of them in 2025) is thrown extremely hard, generates a high number of swings & misses compared to other pitchers' changeups, is an extreme flyball pitch compared to other pitchers' changeups and has some natural sink to it.
